But just as Adrien starts to take a closer look, an eruption of footsteps bleed out of the mansion doors.
A swarm of men in jeans and navy blue Bass Foundation shirts, all holding cameras, quickly march out of the mansion. The cameras turn back to the mansion doors as another figure emerges, a bald white man in his early thirties, wearing a neat, navy blue suit, and sporting a thin shadow of black facial hair.

Stacy Bowman stands up. Adrien, along with a few of the other competitors, smile.
The show has begun. The bald man speaks.
FALCON
Good evening, everyone. On behalf of the Bass Foundation, I'd like to welcome you all to Project M-Verse. My name is Falcon. I am the host and coordinator of the tournament. My first instinct is to congratulate all of your for making it this far into the selection process. However, before your matches begin, there is one last step in your evaluation. The Exhibition, where you will give the viewing public, as well as the Bass Foundation executives, a sample of what you can do. Any questions?
No one speaks. A couple of them give Falcon a nod of affirmation.
FALCON
Good. We'll start with a roll call. State your name and the institution you represent.
